After a cupping massage session with Jim, my shoulders and back felt so much better! Jim has a natural mastery of massage techniques and set aside time at the beginning of the massage session to ask me what hurt. He was really receptive to my needs and I'm definitely a return client now!

Jim definitely knew his craft, had skilled hands, and was able to alleviate and soothen up some of the tight areas around my hip. He provided some advice on how to go about releasing tightness in the future. Although it was my first massage experience, I was very comfortable the entire time and it was overall a very pleasant experience.

I've had many massages from Jim and as he continues to refine his technique each become more satisfying and rewarding. He is clearly an expert at sports injury and deep pressure massage and has fixed many of my long term back and shoulder problems. He is now incorporating a more relaxing touch that pushes his work to the top. Go see Joe!

I went in with tight calves, and after a single session with some trigger point and deep tissue work, plus a couple days to recover, my symptoms were greatly reduced. Jim has an excellent way of "teaching as he goes," which is something that I greatly appreciate. Jim is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and well-humored. He'll be seeing me again.

Jim has a great intuitive feel for where my body needs work, how deep to go & how much pressure I can handle. I've left sessions with my CNS so stimulated, it was like I was in an altered state of consciousness. And, he is making tremendous difference in the pain levels I've lived with. Great work.

For the two visits that I have had, I have been treated with dignity and professionalism. The deep tissue has been great and very helpful with my most challenging part(s). The "skill" area is rated as good because there is always room to learn and improve techniques. The "ambiance" is in the OK rating due to the noise of the gym while in use and the rock music that plays. I know that having a massage in a gym environment can be noisy, but....It will be great once the sound system is in place for a more relaxed atmosphere. Also, maybe a thin/light weight curtain over the window to further dim the room to add a more of a privacy feeling.
